Charles Edward Crabtree age 77 of Henagar died Sunday, January 24 at CHI Memorial. Charles was a loving husband and father to his family and took great pride in his love and commitment to his wife, children and grandchildren. He enjoyed spending time with his family and friends while on excursions in his RV.
Charles was an avid licensed private pilot and longtime member of Fort Payne Experimental Air-craft Association EAA-Chapter 890. Also, he was a longtime member of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) and flew his planes from his private hangar and airstrip located at his residence. In his earlier years, he loved to fly almost daily and took great joy in recreational flying for the experience and feel of as he would say âJust to look around.â
